There was an enormous fish painted on the display window! It was huge! So huge that you couldn't see all of the fish! The fish didn't fit on the display window! Just some scales! If that wasn't a good sign, then they weren't Jerry Sizzler and Jerry Sizzler, two successful store owners! And not two clearly insane people ( Read more... )

Don't take candy from Jerries. It's probably not edible anyway.

Emily goes running in the door. No, she doesn't really check to see what kind of shop it is first. "Hi! Do you have candy here?"

"Come innnnnnnnn!" one Jerry announced.

"Yes! Yes, come in! We have many spatulas!"

"Spatulas and candy!"

"Spatulas made of candy!"

"Candy spatulas! Made entirely of fruit!"

"And fruit by-products!"

"And mud!"

"And mud by-products!"

"Come innnnnnnnnnnnnnn!"

"Mud doesn't have sugar in it," Emily points out dubiously. "Fruit does, kinda. And I'm already in, so I can't come in again."

"It can have sugar in it!" one Jerry argued.

"It can have anything in it!"

"So long as you put it in first!"

"And we always do!"

"Yes! Yes, all our mud comes with sugar added!"

"Then we put our toes in it!"

"And then we all play rummy!"

"And then we stir it with our cards!"

"And our toes!"

"And the cards in our toes!"

"Come innnnnnnnnnnnnn!"

"I'm already in!" Emily said loudly. "I wanna get some candy, and then I'll play cards with your mud or whatever!"

"Yes! Yes! Candy!" They led her excitedly over to a table and made sweeping TA-DA! motions with their arms.

The table had 500 packets of Chia seeds, a 3-inch-high flag of the Kalmar Union, three empty Cracker Jack boxes, and several broken light bulbs.

"Don't eat all of it! You'll get sick!"

"You'll get sick and ruin dinner!"

"Dinner will be RUINED!"

"Getting sick on dinner means no dessert."

"EVER AGAIN!"

"What's wrong with you people?" Emily frowns, picking up the Cracker Jack boxes to check them carefully. "I'm not gonna get sick on my dinner and this is not candy! I want real candy!"

"They don't have any candy," said a bitter boy from behind the girl. "They're crazy. Trust me."

"Well, duh," Emily says, turning to look at the boy. And then she stares, because he kind of looks like a monkey.

"I know," he said. "I know, don't even say it. They make me dress like this. I hate them."

"Why don't you say no?" Emily asks, still staring. She knows it's rude - not that stops Mom ever - but the boy is just... "I'd run away!"

Jerry stared at the girl for a few seconds, and then slapped himself in the face. "I'm an idiot. An idiot."

Ignoring the Jerries - who were now loudly proclaiming him to be someone's dead hamster, Keith-Kenneth-Kensington, he bowed to her. "Thank you. You're a genius."

And he walked out of the store.

"Keiiiiith!" called one Jerry.

"Kenneth-Kent-Kensington-Katrina!"

"Come back! You must meet the squirrels!"

"They are not squirrels, they are donkeys!"

"Yes, yes, meet the donkeys!"

But Jerry Jr. was gone.

So the Jerries turned back to the little girl.

"Would you like to meet the donkeys?"

"The donkeys have all our candy."

"The donkeys have drowned!"

"They drowned with our candy."

"In Mexico!"

"Mexico, Greenland!"

Emily stares at them again, then crunches the last of her Jolly Rancher loudly. "You guys are nuts, an' that's amazing when you know my mom."

Both Jerries stare at her for a moment.

"Jerry! We are not crazy, Jerry!"

"No! No! Not crazy!"

"We are two store owners!"

"And not two clearly insane people!"

"We don't need the pills. We told them that!"

"They try to get into our minds."

"That's why we took the fish down!"

Both Jerries nod enthusiastically.
